The World's Most Bizarre Drug Market | The War on Drugs 

Enjoying VICE marathon today. Your shows are amazing! If you have interest, I would like to see interviews of people who use wheelchairs and what it is like. How do they get treated, what are the plusses and roadblocks of being disabled. There is a large variety of people who use wheelchairs and I think there is a need for people to know the challenges and the attitudes of people who do not using wheelchairs. Thank you VIce!

​@@cbryce9243 😂😂

So very sad 😔

Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!

Yes, dr.sporessss I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.

I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.

Is he on instagram?

Yes he is. dr.sporessss

Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.

Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Austria. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.

YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.

Ive done shrooms last month in my house. It taught me how severely traumatized I was from alcohol. I healed from many mental traumas from my past and was able to forgive, let go. Shrooms to me is a remedy not a vice. I even felt more refreshed the morning after. So no hangovers. No depression mood for days. No anxiety.I now have a more calm mind

How do i find him? Is he on instgram

Ngl it's kind of deserved if he is making the drugs that are fucking up people's lives.

@@alex.104 he's most likely just cooking it up for himself. It's cheaper that way.

@@alex.104 highly recommend watching that episode of Hamiltons Pharmacopeia before you judge him. yes the drug he is cooking kills but please know what you are talking about before you talk about it. their economic and educational situation are large factors into his decision.

@@alex.104 People that produce/supply drugs shouldn't have consequences like these..it's the person buying the drug that wants it afterall..These drug dealers are just giving the people what they want, and clearly if you want meth you are a low life so the client buying is just as scummy as whose selling

@@alex.104 Very childish take

Can you still buy real Mandrax in SA?

@@RAJohnson713 no not usually 90 percent is faked

@@RAJohnson713 and if its faked it can have terrible by products of making methaqualone

Quaaludes are definitely on my to-do list… now I guess I just gotta go to SA

im 22 and i agree theyre great i use to do like 1200mg at atime !! seconal was my fav tho

The way dude told him showed his privilege he must think, "oh he can just go get it checked out and the docs will treat it"

Sad tbh he will prob go out like that

These people are so desperate to make money they kill themselves, the planet and the neighborhood to do it. It's sad there isn't more love out there and public education and funding for these people to find their purpose.

Damn that's just from the fumes crazy

He thought it was methenvitamin

bingo dude. You are extremely strong i wish you all the best in your struggle against meth

Definitely did good. I'm rooting for you man!!!

Well done champion!

Omg thank u guys

Dude, that is amazing! Mark this day as one where you didn't even get in the ring with your enemy. Just walked away like a boss.

Should assume it does something to something in your body

Nah I’m pretty like 99% sure that the drug is a mixture between heroin and some other things and is usually smoked

Nyaope is low grade heroin mixed with other drugs

Tik is chowing way more people here than Nyaope bru

To be honest, mushrooms are one of the most amazing things on the planet and it is natural, they serve in many ways not only for mental related issues.

Can you help me with a reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. It is very hard to get a reliable source here in New Zealand. Really need!

Yes, Sporeville. I had the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and addiction... Mushrooms definitely made a huge difference to why I'm clean today.

no one loves the drug, they become trapped and addicted and need it to be normal and thats were the issues start

Try it before you judge, you might like it

Hopefully your friend can pull through. I was a heroin addict for 15 years. Been sober for 1 year now. There is hope for your friend. Maybe try and reach out and ask if he wants help every once and a while. Rehabs are everywhere, and most are free if you have govt insurance.

Don't turn ur back on them completely....make rules, red lines etc, but always leave a bit of hope with them. It could save their lives 🙏🤔🙏

@Will Rivers Normal people want average speed (amphetamine), not methamphetamine.

TRAP HOUSE?

Thats what im saying kinda like here in the u.s our government distributes and crowd controls drugs here as well

Check out Kensington, PA… also Phoenix, AZ… same thing. Basically free 😢

They would rather get paid in drugs. They make way more money off it than just straight-up currency

@@mosadon8130 To a certain degree. Not sure if you’ve ever gotten the opportunity to travel or if you’ve lived elsewhere. But sadly, it’s not really that controlled by the government as much as id wish it to be so. ( As, at least then there would be some answers, something to blame as well as an easy fix.) I bring up being out of country, purely because it tends to give a better perspective.

That's not how that works... Getting paid in drugs almost ALWAYS means both the person with the drugs and the person getting them are getting a better deal out of it. Getting paid in drugs is always the better deal.

Several years ago I did crack for several weeks. I got sick of it and found it easy to quit. Like a relief not doing it or being involved with those people.

​@@chino3796 was on Rocks for a period. Definitely the worst days of my life. Glad you quit.

That's because crack is not physically addictive it's just phycological addictive. No withdrawal symptoms whatsoever on crack

@@tommysherman7155 that drug was very hard to get off. The psychological part kicks in within 15 mins of your first hit. Here in SA they call it eat some more, cos 1 bite gets you coming back for more. 0 to street in 1 month cos the money goes straight to the crack pipe. Chino was fortunate, depending on how deeply addicted a person is ultimately dictates what the addicts behaviour might be such as what they are prepared to do to get their fix, or not. Never take your eye off a crackhead lol, peoples belongings tend to grow legs around them.

Not only is it not physically addictive just phycological addictive it's the only drug with no medicinal purposes as well. Weed for pain, mood, anxiety and depression, amphetamine for ADHD, Ecstasy LSD and magic mushrooms for anxiety and depression, ketamine for local anaesthetic before an operation and heroin/opioids is found in absolutely every hospital pharmacy in the world for pain, including quality of life pain and end of life care. Crack/cocaine has got no medical purposes whatsoever and is not physically addictive and has got zero withdrawal symptoms

I might holiday there to try the mandrax. hell id try the meth aswell

By khat you mean ket? As in ketamine? 😂

@@mustymk4754its some obsure drug look it up

I've done meth it's only fun a bit then takes away all you love...adderall in high doses feel close to meth but if you go up remember you must come down. That part sucks

Khat is barely a drug, it's basically like coffee, a mild stimulant. Try it if you can, it's really nice. Now cathinone derivatives are another beast entirely, chemically similar to it, but much much stronger stuff, usually labeled as "bath salts". Stay away from those if you can!

Lol you really think there is a war on drugs and not a war to control the drug trade?

@@NoleInJax*"The War on Drugs" is official government policy that began under Richard Nixon and is still going on today. The only thing prohibition does is turn illegal drugs into profitable commodities, entrench police corruption and enrich organised crime*

You must have missed the part about the Chinese exploiting poor South African fisherman…

@@Sideshowmanatee what you mean?

Only white people exploit just ask one of our multimillionaire nigs

Why cheer this on? White people are confused as to why Africans don't trust them. This is the reason why. You love drama, China doesn't.

Well, some of the Beatles wrote their best songs while on meth and a different formulation of it is prescribed and used to treat ADHD (and, for many, is super successful in doing so) So, while meth can and often does ruin lives, it has its uses and it can be used safely/more safely than is shown

@@basilbyers5066 Meth doesn't destroy lives, lack of self control does. Unfortunately most people lack it which makes meth dangerous.

@@basilbyers5066 you should be able to figure out the difference between amphetamine salts and methamphetamine. No one treats ADHD with methamphetamine. There's a brand name methamphetamine tablet called Desoxyn which is rare and mainly prescribed for narcolepsy. Changing a molecule on a chain to create an entirely different compound is not a "different formulation." That being said, ADHD meds are also not to be trifled with and have led more than one person (hand raised) to eventually try meth.

I ate meth for year, I smoked it first but for some reason I never got high did it a few times and nothing. Eating it was wild and awesome, I stopped doing it because I moved and it's been three years, snorting it burns like hell

@@xxz1434 👏👏👏 Thats the real truth understanding, whatever drug they call, coke, meth, blah blah blaahhh... Its Basic Simple .. . You can take/used but dont abuse it!!! ☺️☺️☺️

@@JJONNYREPP man I wish I remember his name,he was a German or Dutch scientist working for the apartheid government ,this man was a literal genius,well classified documents were leaked by an assistant or something along those lines,it completely outlays his thesis hypothesis and the changes of his plans.

You'll be back. Otherwise that time wouldn't mean anything to you. And this video wouldn't have you clicking on it. It would be insignificant to you. Just remember to moderate, don't slam it, preferably eat it, and do regularly timed dosages. Like a doctor's script. 15 mg 3x a day worked for me. But that was Desoxyn. Street meth is a little more tricky to regulate dosage, but its doable. But, if you can't moderate, (you CAN, you're just not applying yourself) then I guess a lifetime without it is your lot. And you will have to go to a shrink and get properly diagnosed for the undiagnosed ADHD you have, and get a legal script for the much less effective Adderall or Vyvanse, etc. (Hold out for Desoxyn) But don't get your hopes up. Settle for modafinil. You'll be fine.

It's not similar. It is quaaludes. The only difference with mandrax is that they added diphenhydramine. Does anybody pop the mandrax down there or just smoke it. Why not pop it? I would rather get a 4-6 hr buzz compared to a 10min super high

I’m born in Amsterdam and lived here my whole life no meth here. Only in gay scene maybe but it’s nothing so small

Good pun ! Touché 😂

Ketamine now comes from China more often than not, the potent stuff around is usually research chemicals (2-FCDK, DCK, MXP etc etc). There are no liquid vials really anymore because India clamped down on it.

liquid ketamine is nothing else than solved ketamine crystals in a solvent. if you have it as a liquid it takes up a multitude of the space of just pure crystals and is therefore harder and more expensive to smuggle. Also the medicinal bottles are fragile and hard to transport in big quantity.

It's apartheid, apart means seperate heid and means something like the dom in kingdom

It's far worse, far worse than you can imagine. A life, it cost nothing. I was marked by the feds and the technocracy for speaking to a few. They illegally monitored all forms of communication and then emphasized on it by purposely spreading it to more eyes.

Your source for this? Buttons (old school sa slang for mandrax) was used in the 70s amongst people of all race groups, but prolific amongst "coloured" gangs in the cape, selling to anyone who wanted to buy. Afrikaaners are not the only white race group in SA.

@davidjones3712 I say Afrikaner to mean white African so as not confuse people with Europeans. And the discrepancy is definitely down to how there's no single drug gang running the place. As more blacks got access to the knowledge of how to cook meth it became more widespread.

'Ludes (methaqualone) were banned in USA in 1984 and illicit methaqualone in the states had essentially halted in the late '80s. "Lemmon 714"-stamped tablets popped up occasionally in the '90s but they almost certainly contained no methaqualone.

You and me both

Me too. It's kinda surprising that we don't have any illicit methaqualone in the states. I knew someone that kept a little tin of 'ludes for over thirty years after the ban & wouldn't let me buy even one at any price. Must be some pretty great stuff.

@@fractionoflight4495 Well in America the sleep deprivation makes people unbelievably mentally ill, like all the vagrants and people on the street. Also I recently heard all the meth on the streets these days (from cartels) is no longer the d-meth form but mostly l-meth (a different isomer) instead, because ephedrine is no longer used in the synthesis and l-meth apparently is a 'dirtier' more manic and side-effect-riden version of the drug.
